Bad Liebenstein

Bad Liebenstein is the oldest spa in Thuringia and a true insider tip for convertible drivers looking to combine relaxation, history, and stunning nature in one destination. Nestled in the southwestern Thuringian Forest, this traditional spa not only offers relaxation and culture, but also winding roads and magnificent views – perfect for a leisurely convertible tour in Thuringia. Additionally, Bad Liebenstein is part of the Thuringian Forest Nature Park Route. 

Driving Through the Werratal and the Heights of the Thuringian Forest in a Convertible

The journey to Bad Liebenstein is an experience in itself: From Eisenach, the route winds along the curvy B19 through the picturesque Werratal, passing castles, forests, and half-timbered villages. Scenic and less busy routes through the low mountain range are also available from Schmalkalden or Meiningen – ideal for a relaxed drive with the top down.

The region is characterized by gentle elevations, sweeping curves, and surprising panoramic views. Along the way, numerous viewpoints and guesthouses invite for small breaks – pure enjoyment for drivers who like to explore off the main roads.

In Bad Liebenstein, you can expect a charming mix of historic spa architecture, well-kept parks, and stylish villas from the 19th century. The spa promenade, the spa theater, and the little fountain temple remind us of the spa’s golden era. The Altenstein Castle with its extensive landscape park is also worth seeing – a perfect destination for a walk with views of the Thuringian countryside.

For those looking to relax in between, the modern spa clinic or the wellness area of the town offers recovery for body and mind – ideal as a counterbalance to the drive.

Bad Liebenstein – Relaxed Driving Pleasure in a Historical Setting
